Ebook Temperature Quilts, Embroideries and Other Slow Craft Projects

This is an ebook in PDF format.
It is a digital file which you download to read on your device (and print if you like). The ebook is designed to work best in a vertical format.

In 2020 I made a steps tracking quilt. It was a nice companion through the turmoil of that year. In 2021 and 2022 I worked on embroideries which tracked the temperatures where I live. I have really come to appreciate how long-term projects like these can be a comfort and a daily reminder to make something, even if it is a small something.

After doing a few of this type of project, as well as other long-term projects, I have learned a lot about what works and also some things that I would do differently.

This ebook is a resource I wish I had before I started these projects because there are a lot of things to consider!

The 62 page ebook contains tips, advice and resources:

• How to work out a temperature scale (I also include the one I use)
• Deciding on the size of the project
• Ideas for things to track
• How to keep track of your information
• Tips on preparing for a large project
• How to estimate the amount of materials you will need
• Design/layout of your project
• DMC thread colour range for a temperature project
• Kona cotton colour range for a temperature project 
• Quilt block suggestions
• Interviews with others about their projects, including Jo Avery and Karen Lewis.
• Templates and tracking spreadsheets

PLEASE NOTE: This ebook does not tell you how to make a quilt or quilt blocks, nor how to do individual embroidery stitches, crochet techniques or other craft techniques. It is a guide to planning a quilt or other project. You will need to know the techniques of your chosen project craft already or do some internet searching to find that kind of information. :-)
